Seagull by the seashore

5 comments:

Lovely shot of the gull. . . .I know that they're messy creatures, but I do enjoy watching them. When my mom was alive, she lived in Youngstown, OH, a very land-locked place. A flock of gulls somehow gravitated towards a commercial area there. They're still there, although no one knows why or how they got there/stay there.

The large ones can grow 40-50 ft. in height. I have seen some that tall. The leaves are quite large, as are the flowers. The mini magnolias like we bought will grow to be about 10-12 feet tall. The flowers are not quite as large. From what I understand, there are a lot of different species of magnolias.
